Answering a Call While Another Device is on a Call

The Deskset, Cordless Handset, and Cordless Headset all share the same extension number. If there is an active call, it must be
placed on hold before other calls can be placed or answered by one of the other extension devices. You must also switch control
to the device you want to use.

Incoming Calls

An Incoming Call appears on the Deskset and Cordless Handset, and both devices emit ringtones. If one device answers the call,
the other device ceases to ring but its Call Appearance indicators reflect the status of the call. This behavior allows an additional
incoming call to appear on either device. If there is a subsequent incoming call, the device currently on an active call emits an
abbreviated ringtone but the other device does not.

Held Calls

Both the Handset and Deskset display held calls. The Deskset shows held calls in the Call Appearance screen. The Handset
displays the current held call with an option to cycle through the Call Deck (see
or Navigation key. When there are held calls, either device can retrieve a held call.
The Handset goes into Power Save mode after a period of inactivity. When it is in Power save mode, the display is dark.
The held call information is not visible until you or an incoming call wakes up the Handset. You can wake up the Handset
by pressing any Handset key.
